Two workers are sliding 450 kg kg crate across the floor. One worker pushes forward on the crate with a force of 380 NN while the other pulls in the same direction with a force of 230 NN using a rope connected to the crate. Both forces are horizontal, and the crate slides with a constant speed. What is the crate's coefficient of kinetic friction on the floor

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The coefficient of kinetic friction on the floor is 0.138

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the crate, m = 450 kg

force applied by the first worker, F₁ = 380 N

force applied by the second worker in the same direction as the first worker, F₁ = 230 N

frictional force opposing the motion of the box = -[tex]F_k[/tex]

Apply Newton's second law of motion;

∑F = ma

[tex]F_1 + F_2 - F_k = ma[/tex]

If the crate slides with constant speed, acceleration is zero (0).

[tex]F_1 + F_2 - F_k = ma = 0\\\\F_1 + F_2 - F_k = 0\\\\F_k = F_1 + F_2\\\\\mu _kmg= F_1 + F_2\\\\\mu _k = \frac{F_1 + F_2}{mg} \\\\\mu _k = \frac{380 + 230}{450 \times 9.8} \\\\\mu _k = 0.138[/tex]

Therefore, the coefficient of kinetic friction on the floor is 0.138

Two people that have identical weight are holding onto a massless pole while standing on horizontal frictionless ice. 1)If the guy on the left starts to pull on the pole, where do they meet

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

From the missing image attached below, it is obvious that there no external force. This implies that they cannot change their position by merely just pulling the ropes. As a result, there will be no movement and no net force will exist.

So, if there is no external force;

The center of mass of the two people is:

[tex]X_{cm}= \dfrac{m_1x_1+m_2x_2}{m_1+m_2} \\ \\ X_{cm}= \dfrac{m(-3m)+m(+3m)} {m+m}\\ \\ X_{cm}= \dfrac{0}{2m} \\ \\ X_{cm} =0[/tex]

Thus, In the system, no movement occurs and all forces remain the same.

Parallel rays from a distant object are traveling in air and then are incident on the concave end of a glass rod with a radius of curvature of 15.0 cm. The refractive index of the glass is 1.50. What is the distance between the vertex of the glass surface and the image formed by the refraction at the concave surface of the rod? Is the image in the air or in the glass?

Answers

Answer:

the distance of image from the vertex is 45 cm and the image formed is in the glass.

Explanation:

distance of object, u = - infinity

radius of curvature, R = - 15 cm

refractive index, n = 1.5

Let the distance of image is v.

Use the formula

[tex]-\frac{n1}{u}+\frac{n2}{v}=\frac{n2- n1}{R}\\\\-\frac{1}{\infty }+\frac{1.5}{v}=\frac{1.5-1}{-15}\\\\v=45 cm[/tex]

A 9.2 resistor and a 5.2 resistor are connected in series with a battery. The potential difference across the 5.2 resistor is measured as 12 V. Find the potential difference across the battery.

Answers

Answer:

V = 33.12 V

Explanation:

Given that,

A 9.2 resistor and a 5.2 resistor are connected in series with a battery.

The potential difference across the 5.2 resistors is measured as 12 V.

In series combination of resistors, the current is same throughout the circuit. Let I is the current. Using Ohm's law,

[tex]I=\dfrac{V}{R}[/tex]

Put all the values,

[tex]I=\dfrac{12}{5.2}\\\\I=2.30\ A[/tex]

The equivalent resistance is :

R = 9.2 + 5.2

= 14.4 ohms

Let V os the potential difference across the battery. So,

[tex]V=2.3\times 14.4\\\\V=33.12\ V[/tex]

So, the potential difference across the battery is equal to 33.12 V.

Answers

This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

People who do very detailed work close up, such as jewelers, often can see objects clearly at much closer distance than the normal 25 cm.

a) What is the power in D of the eyes of a woman who can see an object clearly at a distance of only 8.50 cm? (Assume the lens-to-retina distance is 2.00 cm.)

b) What is the size in mm of an image of a 8.00 mm object, such as lettering inside a ring, held at this distance? (Include the sign of the value in your answer.)  __ mm

Answer:

1) the power in D of the eyes of a woman is 61.7647 D

2) the size in mm of an image of a 8.00 mm object is -1.882 mm

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

a) power in D of the eyes of woman who can see an object clearly at a distance of only 8.5 cm and the lens-to-retina distance is 2.00 cm,

so

u = 8.5 cm = ( 8.5 / 100 )m = 0.085 m

v = 2.00 cm = ( 2 / 100 )m =  0.02 m

Now, we know that power of lens p = 1 / u + 1 / v

so we substitute

p = ( 1 / 0.085 ) + ( 1 / 0.02 )

p = 11.7647 + 50

p = 61.7647 D

Therefore,  the power in D of the eyes of a woman is 61.7647 D

b) What is the size in mm of an image of a 8.00 mm object, such as lettering inside a ring, held at this distance? (Include the sign of the value in your answer.)

we know that;

m = -v / u

we substitute

m = -0.02 / 0.085

m = -0.2353

since H₀ = 8.0 mm

H[tex]_i[/tex] = m × H₀

H[tex]_i[/tex] = -0.2353 × 8.0

H[tex]_i[/tex] = -1.882 mm

the size in mm of an image of a 8.00 mm object is -1.882 mm

Your tutor says atomic nuclei are converted to nuclear energy in a nuclear reaction. why should you seek a new tutor?

Answers

Answer:

The answer is "Momentum and net Energy(that contains mass)".

Explanation:

No matter which type of nuclear reaction, the momentum always is maintained. According to the formula, E = mc^2 of Einstein, energy conservation on the atomic level requires the change in mass of its core which may have been shared throughout the reaction as mass and energy, that's why we can say that the nuclei aren't fully converted into electrical energy rather rearranged and the mass could be changed and dispensed to the nucleon as energy.

A seagull flying horizontally over the ocean at a constant speed of 2.60 m/s carries a small fish in its mouth. It accidentally lets go of the fish, and 2.50 s after the bird lets go, the fish lands in the ocean. (a) Just before reaching the ocean, what is the horizontal component of the fish's velocity in m/s

Answers

Answer:

Horizontal Component of Fish's Velocity = 2.6 m/s

Explanation:

In this scenario, we will neglect the effects of the air resistance on the small fish. Since there is no resisting force available in the horizontal direction. Therefore, the horizontal component of the velocity of the fish will remain equal to the horizontal component of the velocity of the seagull and it will remain the same throughout the whole motion.

Horizontal Component of Fish's Velocity = Constant Horizontal Speed of Seagull

Horizontal Component of Fish's Velocity = 2.6 m/s

A metallic circular plate with radius r is fixed to a tabletop. An identical circular plate supported from above by a cable is fixed in place a distance d above the first plate. Assume that d is much smaller than r. The two plates are attached by wires to a battery that supplies voltage V.

Required:
a. What is the tension in the cable?
b. Compute the energy stored in the electric field after the top plate was raised.

Answers

Answer:

A) F = V²E_o•πr²/2d²

B) U = E_o•Aπr²V²/2d

Explanation:

A) Since we have two circular plates, the formula for the electric field is expressed as;

E = V/d

Where;

V is voltage

d is distance

However, the net electric field produced is given by;

E' = V/2d

The tension in the cable can then be expressed as;

F = qE'

Where q is charge

Thus;

F = qV/2d - - - (eq 1)

We also know that;

C = q/V = E_o•A/d

A is area = πr²

Thus;

q/V = E_o•πr²/d

q = VE_o•πr²/d

Let's put VE_o•πr²/d for q in eq 1 to get;

F = V²E_o•πr²/2d²

B) formula for the energy stored in the electric field is;

U = ½CV²

From earlier, we saw that; C = E_o•A/d

Thus;

U = ½E_o•AV²/d

A = πr²

Thus;

U = E_o•Aπr²V²/2d

Describe two 'beneficial' aspects from the last 10,000 years of humanity, as well as two 'dis-advantageous' aspects. Agriculture should be your guiding point here.

Answers

Answer:

Two beneficial aspects of the last 10,000 years of mankind have been the development of writing and the development of civilized communities.

Thus, writing has allowed the recording of the different historical events that have taken place during the development of humanity, setting precedents for subsequent generations, allowing documenting the progress that humanity has been achieving. On the other hand, the development of civilized communities around urban systems has allowed for greater economic and social development on the part of human groups, which through cooperation have been acquiring an increasingly higher quality of life.

On the other hand, two negative aspects of these years have been the world overpopulation and the pollution of the planet.

Thus, the amount of the world's population has been getting closer and closer to the limit of our planet's carrying capacity, which could lead humanity to a point where resources are definitely scarce, causing famines and various catastrophes. On the other hand, the pollution arising from the development of industrial societies has notably undermined the health of individuals and has damaged their standard of living, while causing irreparable damage to the natural environment.
